Parent's Cases Only: Tracking Thread

second stage said:
What does your parents passport indicate as place of their birth?

You need to visit that local municpality and ask for NABC and if they need proof, show them the passport! and any affidavits from elders(if needed)

That's exactly what I did...

Ask them what they would like as proof of residence. If there are any elders in your family(older than your parents) then an affidavit from them will suffice.

There is a standard form(Form #10) as per the Registration of Births and Deaths Act, 1969 and this is available in every municipality.

I obtained from municipal authorities in Bangalore.

This is GOLD.
Great useful infrmation Second_Stage.

Shanks: simultaneously, you should approach local indian consulate and see what help they can provide.

In old times, high % people were born in homes and not hospitals. Very less % of births were formally reported to Govt. offices and less BCs were generated. now many of those homes may not even exist after 60 years, parents of such person may have passed away (80-100 years) so what does a living person do to prove that he was born 60 years ago at such and such a place? Local govt should help based on affidavits, self declaration, tax documents, school documents, photographs if any. I always advocate aganst bribes, most of the times that is.
 
The green card came in the mail right after the welcome letter. No passport stamping

Thanks again drgeorge.

There is one important question for you since you already received your GC:
After receiving Welcome Letter, did you have to go for ADIT processing or passport stamping for I-551 or GC came in to mail straighaway.
I am asking this question due to following discussion on ADIT processing
http://forums.immigration.com/showthread.php?t=253802

IMHO: form 325G exactly does what they expect in ADIT processing.
AP does what a stamp I-551 does in passport.

VISHNU and other Experts on this forums,

The only place I am getting stuck is getting NABC for my parents.
I have all other documentation to file for them and need help..

Heres the scenario

a> My parents were born in 1940 and 1949 and they dont have birth certificates.
b> We do have affidavits about their birth from our relatives.
c> I need to get Non availability of birth certificates for them.

I am not able to get NABC from local offices as they are not issuing it without any proof of residence.They are asking me to furnish some kind of proff that says that my parents or my grand parents lived in that locality ( where my parents were born).We dont have any such proofs with us.I even contacted yourmaninindia.com..Even they are saying the same thing..This is from Tamil Nadu..

Can any one please please help me with this? Anybody who has done this in recent past please post your experience.The only alternative I have is to go ahead and file it with a BC from Consulate and expect that it would go thru..But if I do get an RFE..then I amhelpless without NABC.

To Whom It May Concern



Enclosed please find the following;


o This covering letter
o The “Request for Additional Evidence” letter
o Copy of I-485 Receipt Notice
o Photocopy of ‘Non-Availability of Birth Certificate’ from concerned authorities
o Since notarized affidavits of birth from parents and relatives were submitted with the original I-485 application, I am herewith enclosing copies of the same.


I am submitting ‘Non-Availability of Birth Certificate’ from concerned authorities because I was born on July 30th, 1949 and Registration of Birth was not mandatory in India for people born before June 2, 1969


Thank you in advance for your assistance in this matter. Please do not hesitate to contact me if a question should arise.

Awesome, Vishnu
I'm especially interested in tracking those filling for parents from NYC DO recently.
 
Consolidated Tracking Sheet: .xls and .pdf

Friends:

I have started Consolidated Sheet.
To begin with I am uploading two files here:
USCIS_v2.xls: Please populate your own data only and re-upload the file.
USCIS_v2.pdf: Publishing version2 of consolidated data.

I have put names of the placeholders in RANDOM order in this v2.
We can later sort it the way we want.
In order to expedite, I thought of uploading editable excel file for everybody to upload their own data initially.
I will copy only one row per user into master file and publish as often as I can.

This is initial attempt, we can always refine the process.
It is quite a task to consolidate data sent here for the last 6 to 8 months, in a single day, hence I have populated only 3 rows and marked them green as complete.

POPULATE only your row in .xls. Add your username if not listed already.

For effective viewing of PDF publish file: View -> Page display -> check Two -Up Continuous, and uncheck -> Show gaps between pages. and then zoom to 200% or more.

All the best, let's help everybody with clean heart.

-Vishnu

Hi all,
Instead of everyone download and upload the data manually, I put up the document online and everyone can edit/view them.

Vishnu,
Can you look over this for us. Thanks

baraider: I appreciate your suggstion. However, there was one problem why I could not use shared google docs. This is what I got when I tried to open it from my office and it may be true for other folks sitting inside firewall/intranet:

Your organization's Internet use policy restricts access to this web page at this time.

Reason:
The Websense category "Personal Network Storage and Backup" is filtered.

USCIS_v3.pdf ( 8 usrs updated)

Folks,

Please find latest USCIS_v3.pdf with data for 8 users updated now.
There are currently 16 users, I plan to update the remaining data in the next two days.
If you could help populating your row just like second_stage did, it would help the cause.

Vishnu

A lot of parent cases in other thread

In the main sticky which is supposed to work as source of information and answer a lot of initial questions, I see a lot of cases for parents Green Card applications.
http://forums.immigration.com/showthread.php?t=202993&page=74

How can we bring in/transfer the data to our spreadsheet. If we could get 50-100 cases, it will clearly show the trend for time for each stage.

If someone copies the dates and username on notepad and upload, I can transfer it to spreadsheet here and publish.

Thanks and Regards
Vishnu
 
Please advice as I am planning to apply AOS for my mother who is visiting us on B2. This is her 6th visit in US.

I already had my US citizen interview in last week on 06/04 and will have my oath in the next month on 07/15 and will have the naturalized certificate.

My questions are:
1. Can I apply AOS for my mother who has been visting us from last two month. Her 90 days expire on 07/26. Shall I apply AOS ((I-130, I-485, I-864,I-693, G-325A, I-765, I-131) after 07/26.

2. Should i choose answer "A", or go for option "H. Other" and offer a brief explanation like "An immediate relative petition is being filed concurrently with this application."


Form I-485 Part 2 Application type has the following options to chose from (a. An immigrant petition giving me an immediately available immigrant visa number has been approved (attach a copy of the approval notice, or a relative, special immigrant juvenile, or special immigrant military visa petition filed...

h. Other basis of eligibility. )

Please advice.

Thanks
